Текст песни
[Куплет 1] I found your letter underneath the kitchen plate Folded twice where the coffee used to wait You wrote, “i’m sorry,” but the ink had run too thin Some roads turn back, some never let you in [Куплет 2] The old ford coughed beside the pecan tree Your blue scarf hung from the passenger seat I held it close till the thread came loose A little piece of you i could not keep or lose [Припев] If you hear this song from the far side of town Know i still say your name when the sun goes down I was too proud to bend, too blind to see The door was open, and you were leaving me [Куплет 3] Your mother keeps the porch light burning low Says you ask about me when the cold winds blow I tell her i’m fine, then i stare at the floor Truth has a way of waiting by the door [Бридж] I’d trade these miles for one honest night One chance to hold you and make it right No grand parade, no promise carved in stone Just your hand in mine, and neither of us alone [Припев] If you hear this song from the far side of town Know i still say your name when the sun goes down I was too proud to bend, too blind to see The door was open, and you were leaving me [Final chorus] If you hear this song, let it carry me home Past the county line and the fields of broken stone I was too proud to bend, but now i see The door was open, and you were everything to me [Аутро] Everything to me Everything to me
